Challenge or Opportunity

I was listening to a podcast this morning while walking. The co-hosts were discussing fitness, and one of the important pieces they focused on was dealing with stress. We all know that stress in our lives is not a good thing, and how we handle it really does play a part in our overall health.…

God Restores

Today we’re going to spend the day putting away Christmas. Even though there are still a few days of those 12 days of Christmas remaining, we don’t have to have the decorations up to celebrate them. I must admit, there is a feeling of newness when we get everything put nicely away, do a little…

Paint the Picture

Yesterday, we kicked off 2026, and I have to say we truly enjoyed the day. We slept in, made breakfast, and then relaxed with projects. One of the gifts I got for my husband for Christmas was the Lego Bronco, which has some pretty cool features, I might add. He parked himself at the kitchen…

When Things Don’t Come Together

Last week, I had one of those unusual days. You know, everything was just off. I went to sign something, and my pen ran out of ink. Sent a document to the printer, and an error message popped up that I’d never seen before. A phone call asking questions about really off-the-wall things that I…

True Joy

Last night I was reading in my little red book, “The Practice of Religion”, which I’ve shared about before here in this little blog. It’s a wonderful book filled with prayers and small services to get you through all manner of life. I read evening prayer almost every night from it. Last night, though, I…

A Price

I’ve shared with you all before that sometimes I come to this little blog and don’t have a clue what I’m going to say. Father usually gives me a boost, and everything falls into place. Well, this morning I had just the opposite issue. I have several thoughts that I’d like to share, and I’m…

Dual Meaning

One of my favorite Christmas songs is Believe sung by Josh Groban. This is the title song for the movie Polar Express. I’m sure you are all familiar with the plot. A young boy has come to that sad point where he no longer believes in Santa, or at least he’s close to it. The…

It’s Not About…

I was thinking about this little blog this morning. It was one of those mornings when I was struggling a bit about what to share. Even my morning check-in with Father didn’t really yield a message, which is unusual. However, throughout the morning, my mind keeps returning to a situation from yesterday. I don’t want…

It’s Just

If you’ve read the last few blog posts, you know that we’re heading to spend Thanksgiving with our family up north. We’re making the drive, and admittedly, it’s not the most fun, but we’ve had a good time chatting and playing some remember when. We snuck in a lunch with our Godson yesterday on the…

He Has Other Plans

This morning, I got another reminder that I really am not in control. Newsflash, I really do need to remember that, it makes for easier days 🙂 . Last week at work, our IT company did a security update to our system, including our email system. We have to have all the necessary processes in…
